00:25This girl who does fishing in the river is Nagiri Gayathri.
00:29She was born in a normal fisherman's family in Nagayilanka village, Krishna district.
00:35Since childhood, she used to go fishing with her father.
00:39She learned how to row a boat, how to row a boat, how to row a net, how to fish.
00:45She set out for her future there.
00:55In 2017, when Kanoi and Kayaking competitions were held in Sankranthi Sambaral,
01:12Gayathri participated in the first water competition.
01:15Hello everyone, my name is Nagiri Gayathri.
01:18I am from Nagayilanka, Krishna district.
01:20I am one of the disciplined international players in Kayaking and canoeing.
01:24I am studying in Sri Velagpur Ramakrishna Memorial College.
01:28I didn't know about water sports before.
01:30My father used to go fishing.
01:33He used to go fishing.
01:35Along with him, my father used to take us for swimming training in his free time.
01:42This is how I got interested in water sports.
01:45In 2018, Sankranthi Sambaral was held here.
01:48I saw the competition and decided to join Kayaking and canoeing.
01:57I decided that Kayaking, canoeing, and boating would be good.
02:02At that time, coaches like Srinu sir and Nagababu sir also joined us.
02:09Krida Karani says that despite all the difficulties, practice is not stopping.
02:13Adhunathana says that if you join Kayaking and canoeing, you will be able to live internationally.
02:18We started practicing when the competition started.
02:22In the middle, the coaches did not join us.
02:25Anyway, we continued practicing.
02:28Now, we are able to go to nationals and internationals.
02:32In AP, we don't have boats like canoes.
02:34When we didn't have the equipment, we practiced in Bhopal.
02:39When we came here, our police team, SP sir, and Appikattal Apparao sir sponsored us with normal fibre boats.
02:48But these boats are very heavy.
02:52These boats are used only for practice in plain water.
02:56In white water, these boats are not used like foreign boats.
03:02These boats break even if they touch the rocks.
03:07We have foreign boats like Wajda.
03:11We need boats like that.
03:13It is very difficult to spread the equipment.
03:17The boats we use cost 35,000 rupees.
03:22But foreign boats cost 4 to 5 lakhs.
03:25We need boats like that with good equipment and paddles.
03:30I want to go to the international Olympics.
03:34I want to support that.

06:30Gayathri is proving that she is not a burden to her father. She is going to competitions
06:35due to financial problems. Dheema is saying that if the government supports her, she
06:40can achieve more.
